    For context, what's your mileage?

    53,738 kilometers. I think I also, found out the issue I'm having after reading different forums and videos related to my Lexus model and year.  Shim kits.....Never heard of this and assumed new brakes came with this, but I guess not.

  2. My car, when doing a slow cruise (foot off brake and gass) and just letting it roll, I hear like screeching. Some guy told me he had the same problem with his Lexus, and another told me it was because the original manufactured brakes from Lexus were "too rough" or something along those lines. 

     

    Anyone else have or having this issue? 

    P.S. 

    I've had it checked and they said pads and discs were fine. 

  3. When I'm driving slow speeds (like foot off the pedal) and just cruising, I hear the brakes or something screeching/squealing. The last mechanic told me he had the same issue on his Lexus SUV and he needed to get non-OEM brakes. In other words, he said the ones from Lexus were way too rough and to get "softer" ones whatever that means?

     

    Does/did anyone have this problem?

  4. I wanted to ask for those with a 2013 Lexus IS300h or a few years after, has anyone bought this product or know someone who has?

    I'd love to upgrade my smaller screen, with this more slick and clean one but I know it's had issues in the past with small things like times not syncing up (digitally one vs the analog), or audio issues. 

     

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Hi DC. I've just come across your thread. I've looked up the cellllink neo only to find its a battery for a dashcam. One question. What dashcam are you using? Why does it need a battery? I'm a bit flummoxed because I fitted the Nextbase 322gw which is forwarded facing and has a rear facing camera attached to it. Both give superb quality video. I also got the hardwire kit. I looked in my handbook to see which fuse I could use either for constant power or for power to be turned on and off via ignition. I can't understand also why such a high fuse rating of 15 amp is required when my nextbase is only 2 amp. Please enlighten me.

    what "matt8" had said sums it up. I wanted my car to record while it was off because issues happen even when your car is off. I too had to hardwire my car, but first to the Battery and then the camera would extend to the Battery. This ensures I'm not taking away from my main Battery in my vehicle.

    To answer your question of what I'm camera I'm using, its a Thinkware U1000

    Did you try the advice from Herbie above:

    If you're not convinced about P/Outlet No.1 you could use the S/HTR F/L which is the Seat Heater Front Left (or F/R, Front Right). I wouldn't think they would have power on with ignition off.

    I tried it and it worked. This time when I turned the car off after 5 seconds the charging stopped as well. Thanks!
